AI Agents in Crypto: A New Frontier of Vulnerabilities AI agents are increasingly used in crypto, automating tasks and making real-time decisions. However, this reliance on AI also introduces new security vulnerabilities, particularly through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Security firm SlowMist identified four potential attack vectors exploitable via malicious plugins: data poisoning, JSON injection, function override, and cross-MCP calls. Developers need to prioritize security measures to prevent potential exploits and safeguard user assets.
